What did Xbox One look like in the time leading up to its May 21, 2013 debut? Microsoft revealed some work-in-progress design rejects at its Worldwide Partner Conference today, Polygon reports. Xbox creative director Carl Ledbetter said, "We wanted to make it simple and elegant, and we wanted it to be crafted and tailored, so it's all about quality. Using those principles, we started to design."
You can see some very PlayStation 4-esque designs in the sketches below, as well as a Kinect that looks like something Apple would make...
Some, however, are clear influences in what Xbox One would eventually become.
You can also see some original (awful) names for the original Xbox here on IGN News.
